How to Make a Worm Compost


This video was for my cousin’s science project which he asked me to film and edit. He’s such a funny little kid. :) So if you’ve ever wondered how to make a worm compost, after watching this, you’ll know. Sorry if it’s a little shaky, I’m hoping to get a tripod soon…

    They won’t die that fast, i know what you’re talking about cause ive been fishing. Once they start to turn dark blueish, then they’re dead. If they’re still moving call an exorcist.

    Umm…those are either the biggest redworms I’ve ever seen, or they were nightcrawlers, which wouldn’t do at all well in bin like that…or that’s what I’ve read, anyway. How did that setup work for you?

    Shouldn´t you compost the food first?
    Does it really work like that?

  17. cyrusj2 says:

    You were incorrect …
    You were incorrect in stating that the worms eat the food. Worms don’t eat the food but instead it’s microbes that consume the food. The worms are there to eat the microbes.

    Its a fun video that summarizes the basic process but I would say its missing the details that are necessary make a worm bin successful (aeration, drainage, cutting or processing the food into WAY smaller pieces.) Good enough to get the gist, but viewers should more research if you really want to succeed with vermicomposting. Consider putting such a disclaimer in the video info?

    I’m a newbie at the worm thing, with just a little over a year under my belt, but I have to agree with a lot of people here that this bin probably didn’t do very well as a vermicomost system. No aeration or drainage holes, too much raw food in huge pieces all at once, wrong species of worms. One of those alone could ruin a worm bin, but all together they were like a guarantee that about three weeks after this vid was shot, all the kid had was a stinky box full of garbage. That’s why no sequel.

    What kind of worms do you need and where do you get them?

    red wigglers. you can order them online.

    Red wigglers eat their weight in garbage every day if you use regular earth worms you need about twice as much. So 1 pound of earth worms would eat about half pound of garbage. Like he said though the garbage should be smaller & there should be drainage holes drilled in the bottom. The water that drains out can be saved & used as fertilizer on plants.
